    After about a year of roll saerching I have completed my first roll of Wheats. All pulled from circulation. I finally finished one of my goals. Many more goals to accomplish. A few dates that I have found that are worth mentioning are:

    1909
    1910
    1919
    1920
    1930
    1938

    Now off to pursue more goals. Thanks for reading.

    Way to go Phoenix. Think it is great that you were able to find these from circulated rolls.

    Congratulations!

    Determination and persistance, way to. Just goes to show that there are many many coins still out in circulation, but you must look very hard to find them. The big part is you got them for face value, that's special.

    Thanks all. The thrill of the hunt is also what made this really fun. I'm going to see how many rolls I can put together by the end of the year. That is my new goal. Thanks all so far for replying!

    About everything. I always look at my change, I check my dad's pockets when he let's me, I'll even ask some clerks if I see something in there drawer, if I could exchange. But my BIG secret how I find alot of my stuff is

    Awesome, some day i'm going to go roll searching for pennies...I always feel weird if i go into a bank and ask for a hole box. IDK it just seems kind of weird to me :)

    Thanks all. I'm proud of my self. Thanks for the kind responses. Yeah Ryan, it feels kind of wierd until they get to know you. The funny thing is I'll go in and ask for rolls of cents, they give me the wierdest of looks, and then I say pennies. It is kind of funny to see there expressions. But, searching cents is to me one of the good pay outs, (I never find silver so dimes and quarters are out of the question for me) but in cents I find wheats, BU coppers, plenty of errors, but that is just me. Thanks for all the responses!
